If you are gonna do this once every few months, just rent a flatbed trailer or a Chrysler T&C and get it over with. Drive a Toyota Camry XLE for luxury interior and gas mileage.

Minivan enthusiast? Color me guilty. I just transported a 4x8 sheet of plywood in mine yesterday. And got 22 mpg doing it. Do that in an Escalade.

There is another option in the Chrysler stable, the Pacifica. Combining the attributes of a mommy-van with the less egregious appearance of an SUV, this vehicle may represent a new kind of crossover. Actually, despite a few teething problems and some initial shortage of motive power; the Pacifica is a lower-cost alternative to the RX. I looked at a Pac two years ago before opting for another RX, and the main problem I found with it is that when you optioned it up to RX levels, it was very close to the same price. The interior width would accept a 4 X 8 sheet of drywall, but the length may be a little short. You might want to measure it to be certain. For a hauler that could fit your needs and can be had for anywhere from $28K to $40K MSRP, you could do a lot worse.
